Rotations
There are 13 four-week rotations during the year. First-year Preliminary and Categorical residents have approximately 24 weeks of general medical wards and 12 weeks of MICU. Second- and third-year residents have four rotations on general medical wards per year. The usual team consists of one supervising second- or third-year resident and two interns. Although there are ongoing changes in the yearly schedule, a predicted schedule would be close to the following examples.

Intensive Care Unit Rotation
There is a dedicated ICU team under the supervision of Dr. Jeffrey Fried, a full-time faculty member. This team serves as the primary caregivers for MICU patients and participates in multi-disciplinary rounds, led by Dr. Fried, on a daily basis.
